Mark (hubby) claimed this one, so decisions were made with him in mind. The quilter and I chose "swirling leaves" for the quilting pattern and a dark gray thread. I thought a scrap binding was appropriate. :-D After years of not wanting his own quilt, hubby now has three. ;)

That is just a wonderful quilt. Your points are so sharp.

btw, Is that a free pattern? I thought I remembered you writing about looking for this pattern from a picture, but maybe I am wrong.

Weeelll, not all the points are so sharp. :roll: This one gave me some trouble. I showed the trouble spots in the post when I showed the top, but I didn't dwell on that again. It looks good from a distance, eh? :wink:

Good memory!! I was looking for the pattern. I'd fallen in love with it from a quilt show. I finally found it in a book of blocks I have. I don't remember it now...I could look it up. I think this block has several names.

I looked through my topics and found where I posted that info. Here you go:



"I looked for it with no luck, then created it on EQ6 (haven't learned my 7 yet!) THEN found it in Marsha McCloskey's Block Party--a great book (I bought last year with a gift card from a student ). It's called Woodland Path. My poor book is permanently opened to the page from being folded back--I had to look closely at the pattern for the first 20 blocks before I could do it on my own. "

That's really very, very pretty. Nice colors choices.
